Run results for: bitwise operator vs. boolean logic when using TypedArrays

Bitwise operators are slow in javascript because there is implicit type conversion between floats and ints. If we use TypedArrays though, javascript engines shouldn't have to convert. But do they? This test is here to find out. We'll also check to see whether conversion is performed between another int-like datatypes, Uint32
